When Perfect Is Not Possible

When Perfect Is Not Possible....


When Perfect Is Not Possible....
Which is never!

I have this idea of perfect. This idea of how's things are "supposed" to go. This way of how I want them, how I've planned them, what I've prepared, what I'm anticipating. And it's not always "perfect" that I'm looking or preparing for. But it never makes the outcomes different when things don't quite work out the way I want.


Let's be honest...
I'm a chick, a mom, a wife, sister, friend. And I'm loved and needed.

I have 3 amazing sons who are 2, 6, and 10 who have their own things going on and who often need their momma.

I work full time as a special teacher for kids for with special needs. And days and moments don't always go as planned!

I have a wonderful husband who is my team mate in all things life! 

And I'm working on me! Trying to be the best ME I can be. 

Trying to be healthy, and strong, and organized, and calm, and patient, while still dreaming and chasing goals.

AND. IT. IS. NOT. EASY.

And when 1 thing goes wrong or off plan, I crack. 



And I have to force myself to not feel like a failure. 

Because in my head, sadly I have 2 stages...

Perfection
And
Failure

And I know there is so much more!
I just have trouble seeing it.
And living it.

And I need to try harder. 
I'm working on it!


Because I don't want it to kill 
my skill, 
my spark, 
my art, 
my soul!

Here's to be excellent! Not perfect!
